Energy is still kind of dead in top ranks though because of the meta, so most players won't run energy builds so that energy cost isn't really a problem for it. Plus with the dual modules it's very unlikely that energy mechs can fully drain enemy mechs using swoop now. And it causes more heat damage than even energy drones' drain, swoop has been overbuffed.

But, pre-buff, it was quite literally one of the worst drones in the entire game? Of all my time spent in top ranks, I can't recall a single opponent who used Swoop. Damage to weight ratio is a poor choice of comparison for meta items as it often times inaccurately represents how well an item actually preforms.
 
Right now I don't see too big of a problem with Swoop. It is much stronger now, yes. However it still requires energy, and has pathetically low damage output. I suggest waiting for the proverbial dust to settle on this one. Give it a few weeks, and check to see if energy has developed a way to exploit Swoop's en cost. Otherwise I agree that a very small nerf might be in order. I don't have one myself, but I don't think we should jump straight to "nerf it to hell" immediately. It is a premium item after all, it's supposed to be good. 

That's exactly the reason why trading shouldn't be added, if you can just combine alts, what's the point of focusing on one account?

Even with the buff Hysteria has a few advantages over Malice Beam - it's still the stronger weapon of the two, arguably. If it turns out hysteria needs a buff, it'll get one, eventually.
 
 
Also, general statement,
Please guys, stop going "why x not y" between weapons that aren't top of their class to begin with. The aim isn't to balance B-tier weapons with each other, we don't want the myth food you have to be balanced with each other. 
 
Simply put, currently, phys is meta and every type has a few weapons that are very good and a majority that are useless. Goal is to bring that useless majority up to par bit by bit while creating a meta where all types of builds are perfectly viable for #1. if you're going to compare items of that majority, we'll never get anywhere 😛

Ring me anytime you need some kuntness.
Good update @Alexander. We will see some diversity i believe.
Way to go.
